Arts-Based Research

These books discuss the various art forms that could be used as part of qualitative research. In my initial thoughts regarding the ways I could collect data for my culminating project, I considered using some group work such as group tableaux, to see what commonalities occurred within the sample group. Seen as I have not completed my final dissertation proposal, these will serve as great resources for me should I decide to use more than one arts-based measure to collect data. I have used these texts for previous NYU coursework assignments and they have included a wealth of information.
